Alyssa heard his husky words and felt the thrill of them deep inside of her. Before she could respond, though she had no idea what sort of response she would make, he was kissing her. He kissed her as if he couldn't get enough, as if he were starving and she was his last meal. His mouth moved with intimate design, long drugging kisses that stirred her senses, making her toes curl in their small satin slippers.
His hand rose, cupping her breast, his fingers gently urgent on her taut nipple. Alyssa gasped into his mouth as his thumb brushed the pebbled pink tip with fiery insistence. Her back arched, pressing her flesh into his hand, little mewling whimpers lost in the heat of his mouth.
His eyes glittered in the moonlight as he looked around at where they were. Holding her to him with one strong arm, he turned the horse's head, guiding him in the direction of a small barn close to the outskirts of London, one he knew was deserted.
Before they arrived, a strange wind rose, whipping around the horse, fluttering Alyssa's shift and making her shiver as it caressed her bare skin with icy fingers. The moon hid its face behind a dark curtain of clouds and the first sound of thunder rumbled fiercely.
A splat of rain landed on Alyssa's shoulder, and then another. Soon, it was coming down steadily. Jason leaned over her, trying to protect her from the worst of it. He slipped the hat he'd stolen from the highwayman off his head and put it on hers, tugging it down so that it wouldn't fall off.
"Hang on," he said, kicking his horse into a trot as he saw the dim outline of the barn up ahead of them. They were both soaked by the time they reached it and Alyssa was shivering violently. Jason jumped down, pulling open the doors of the old barn and leading his horse inside and out of the biting sting of the rain, Alyssa still atop him. As soon as he stopped, he looped the reins over an iron ring in the side of the barn and went to Alyssa, reaching up and lifting her down.
Alyssa fell into his arms with an eagerness that made him groan. She was shivering, the thin shift plastered to her body, every curve showing in the most intimate of detail. She blushed, feeling her fair skin redden. She could only be glad that it wasn't light enough in that barn for him to see her.
"You're going to catch your death if you don't get warm," he muttered, using his hands to rub her arms. He stepped back, unbuttoning his coat and dropping the wet garment to the floor before taking off his reasonably dry shirt. "It won't cover much but it's dry."
"Turn around?" she asked. He smiled at her shyness and turned his back, feeling her drape his shirt across his shoulder while she pulled the ripped shift from her body.
The material slipped off his shoulder as she grabbed it, pulling it on and buttoning the front, the fabric warm and smelling of him. "A...All right," she said, her teeth chattering. "I...I can't believe you're not cold."
"I am cold, it's just not manly to shake and shiver. I'm trying to impress you," he said, smiling at her surprised snort of laughter.
"C..con..sider me im..impressed," she shivered. "Even m...more so if y... you could teach m...me how to do that."
He stepped closer, staring at her in the white of his shirt, the hem touching her slender thighs, her hands covered by the length of his sleeve. It was an erotic and sensual sight; long, pale legs curving sleekly from under his shirt, her body draped in the soft linen fabric. "If I'd had problems with the cold before, seeing you in my shirt would surely warm me up," he said huskily, stepping nearer until she could feel the heat of his body.
She looked up into his masked face, her lips parted. His words made her body sing with pleasure. "Will you tell me now who you are?" she asked softly as his arms went around her, drawing her to his naked chest.
"I am an avid admirer, Alyssa. I am only one of hundreds who would give their soul for one of your smiles." His fingers ran over her cheek, tracing her lips with just the tips of two fingers.
Alyssa opened her mouth, her tongue coming out to tease his fingers, drawing one in to nip at. His groan was her reward, encouraging her to do more, to softly suck upon that long digit.
"You are a vixen," he hissed, what she was doing with her mouth sending blood rushing to his already straining cock. "Are you sure this is what you want?"
She hummed her agreement, nipping sharply at the tip of his finger. "You saved me," she breathed as his mouth slowly descended towards her waiting lips. "In some cultures, my life now belongs to you." She rose on tip toe, anxious for the heat of him, for the sensations he roused in her slender form.
Lips met, twisted, fought and acquiesced, her mouth surrendering to his more worldly knowledge of the intimacies of a kiss. Her tongue swept against his, determined that he feel the same sweeping heat she did.
Jason tore his mouth away, lifting her hands, placing them on his chest. "Touch me," he ordered, groaning as her mouth sought his again while she did as she was commanded. Her soft palms sent sparks to gather in his stomach, making his blood run hot, pulsing into his groin. She slid them slowly up his chest, tracing every smooth line, her fingers exploring his hard male nipples with a fascination that threatened his sanity.
His hands also wandered, sliding over her shoulders and slipping down her back. She gasped into his mouth as his large hands cupped the firm curves of her bottom over his shirt. He squeezed those wonderfully resilient curves before fisting the shirt in his hand and pulling it up, his hands finding warm, soft flesh.
"You feel so good," he groaned, tearing his mouth from hers and burying his face in the heaven of her neck. The perfume that had invaded his senses earlier rose to him, and he inhaled greedily, his mind reeling. His lips found her throat, his teeth nipping with sensuous intent, his hands rising on her skin to pull the shirt she wore up her body.
